📌 Lazy Loading Strategy and Internal Metadata System

[Synaptic724]

📘 Context

As ThreadFactory grows, top-level imports might eventually introduce too much overhead during startup — especially as we add more primitives, pools, or utility layers.

---

📋 Plan

When (or if) import time becomes a performance problem:

• Use PEP 562 getattr inside init.py to enable lazy loading of top-level API symbols.
  • Keeps usage like from thread_factory import ConcurrentQueue intact.
  • Defers the cost of loading modules until they're actually needed.

---

⚙️ Optional Enhancement

Introduce a meta dictionary at the top level to store:

• Internal debug flags
• No-GIL detection state
• Runtime switches or feature toggles

This keeps internals clean without polluting the public API.

---

🔮 Example Future Use

Inside thread_factory/init.py:

meta = {
"debug_mode": True,
"nogil_detected": False,
}

🔺 Priority

Medium — Hold off until DynamicPool or other runtime systems are added.
